A GLAZING company in Huddersfield has become a clear leader for quality.

Novaglaze Gardner & Newton, based at Queen’s Mill Road, has gained the ISO 9001:2008 quality certificate and two specialist British Standards Institute kitemarks.

The certificates were presented to director Gary Smith by Clr Mehboob Khan, leader of Kirklees Council.

Mr Smith said: “These internationally-recognised awards confirm Novaglaze Gardner & Newton as one of the world’s leading glass producers and prove that the very highest standards for which we are known are consistently delivered.”

He added: “This day has come out of a lot of hard work by all our staff to ensure every aspect of our company is focused to providing not only the best service but also the very highest quality of optical finished products supplied.”

Novaglaze specialises in supplying curved glass for a variety of applications and locations – including royal palaces and stately homes as well as airports, hotels and shopping centres.

The firm has a 46,000sq ft factory in Lockwood and a 16,000sq ft site in east London as well as a distribution depot in Edinburgh.
